The 1.7.3 version of SeaBIOS has now been released. For more information on the release, please see:
Just gave it a spin, breaks booting a Windows 7 VM for me. Using qemu-1.4.2 from Fedora 19 as well as qemu.git.
Here's the BSOD (F19 qemu and seabios 1.7.3): http://crobinso.fedorapeople.org/misc/seabios_1.7.3_windows_err.png
Thanks for testing. I have a "Windows 7 Ultimate" beta (build 7100) that I tested with and I don't see this problem. (Nor do I see the problem on WinXP.)
Can you try without smp and with a smaller memory size (eg, 512M) to see if the behavior changes.
Hmm, my winxp 32 guest is reproducing as well. And I can reproduce with just the windows 7 media (mine is ultimate N, came off MSDN years ago):
~/src/qemu/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -m 512 -sdl -cdrom /mnt/data/devel/media/win7_64.iso -boot d -bios ~/src/seabios/out/bios.bin
vista and windows 8 preview media are reproducing for me too.
Maybe it's a toolchain thing, anyone else on Fedora 19 that can independently confirm?
Ugh - make sure you aren't using an old acpi-dsdt.aml file. I suggest following the steps outlined in the SeaBIOS README file for creating a mybiosdir/ directory and use the QEMU -L option to point to that directory.
Indeed that was it, thanks Kevin, sorry for the noise.
